It’s an American independent film based on real events and directed by a Professor at UCLA. It’s an amazing story about Japanese women moving to Hawaii and working in Cane fields after getting married to men they just met via letters and pictures only. I would highly suggest watching it and the special features on the DVD also. I watched Picture Bride tonight.

No? I have been away for so long that I haven't had the chance to try either though, so ti's just hearsay... I could be wrong! Let me know how the movie is once you get it!
